In the early 1980s, healthy young Hmong refugees across the United States began dying in their sleep. They went to bed exhausted and never woke up. Medical examiners found no poison, no disease, and no obvious cause of death. But the victims all shared the same terrifying belief: a malevolent night spirit called the dab tsog had come to crush the life from their bodies. The unexplained deaths became one of modern medicine's greatest mysteries—and inspired a young filmmaker named Wes Craven to create one of horror's most iconic monsters. Tonight, we uncover the heartbreaking true story behind A Nightmare on Elm Street.

Summer is here and we're staying indoors instead of sweating it out. We're keeping it cool in the A/C and with some chilling horror anthology TV to help us get through the long summer days. Here are 4 horror anthology series I've picked for our staff picks will this week. Tales from the Darkside (1983)What could've been Creepshow: The Series became Tales from the Darkside. Created by Night of the Living Dead director George A. Romero and horror producer Richard P. Rubinstein, Tales from the Darkside is a half-hour horror anthology show filled with practical effects, and crazy good folks in the director's chair and the writer's room. I recommend the pilot episode, “Trick or Treat” starring Barnard Hughes, if you want a good flavor for this series. Freddy's Nightmares (1988)Spun off from the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, Freddy's Nightmares gave many parents nightmares with its dark, disturbing, violent, and scary content being aired in syndication on broadcast TV where just anyone could watch it! Robert Englund reprises his role as Freddy Krueger and opens and closes each episode with some framing narration. The episode I think you should check out to get a taste for the show is “Killer Instinct,” which stars the great Lori Petty. It's eerie, creepy, and frankly a bit disturbing. If you're down for a good scare or just a big A Nightmare on Elm Street fan, Freddy's Nightmares is well worth your time. The Outer Limits (1995)The 1995 The Outer Limits revival is an incredible cavalcade of acclaimed science fiction and horror writers, directors, and actors. Lasting for 152 episodes and seven seasons, The Outer Limits (1995) far outstripped its predecessor, and offers viewers a fascinating and often poignant exploration of human topics through the lens of science fiction horror. There are so many episodes I could point to for great examples from this series, but one of my favorites is the season 4 episode, “Glyphic.” Starring Rachael Leigh Cook, Brad Swaile, written by Naren Shankar, and directed by the late, great Catherine O'Hara, this is a fascinating episode that deals with an unexplainable disease with an out-of-this-world solution. The New Scooby-Doo Movies (1972)Finally, The New Scooby-Doo Movies from 1972 rounds out my selections for the staff picks wall this week. No, it's not exactly what comes to mind when you think of anthology horror TV, but hear me out, I think it is. It follows in the anthology horror TV format of new guest stars every week, a new monster or ghost to figure out, a bit of mystery to uncover, but it's wrapped in an animated comedy package. It's anthology horror that's fun for everyone, be they adults, kids, or teens. And it also serves as a good chaser if you need something more lighthearted after the first three recommendations. While I literally enjoy every episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies, I think “The Loch Ness Mess” featuring The Harlem Globetrotters is one of the more interesting, if not strange episodes of the series.

Grab your popcorn and lock your doors, because this week Beans and Gaz are turning the lights down low. The boys are joined in the studio by horror aficionados Chris and Jake Montejunas—the masterminds behind the Supernatural Collaborations Media podcast and Iron Rose Customs LLC.As it turns out, all four grew up watching gore, ghosts, and ghouls from a criminally young age, and it's time to put that childhood trauma to good use. The crew dives headfirst into the ultimate horror debate: When it comes to the holy trinity of slashers, who reigns supreme? Is it the silent, calculated evil of Michael Myers, the relentless brute force of Jason Voorhees, or the quip-heavy nightmare fuel of Freddy Krueger?The conversation gets bloody as they dissect the evolution of the genre, pitting the golden age of practical special effects against the glossy, modern world of CGI. Plus, they tackle the age-old question: Do horror remakes ever actually match up to the original masterpieces?Wait, did we actually forget Clive Barker? The guys address the Cenobite in the room and debate whether they intentionally left out Hellraiser and Nightbreed, or if they just got distracted by things that go bump in the night.Intermingled with the cinematic debates is a treasure trove of odd trivia—including the terrifying true story that loosely inspired Wes Craven to create A Nightmare on Elm Street. Finally, the crew veers way off the beaten horror path to discuss the "regular" mainstream movies that somehow managed to scare the absolute bejesus out of them.It's a hilarious, nostalgic, and occasionally spine-chilling episode you don't want to miss!The Big Three: Breaking down Michael vs. Jason vs. Freddy.Practical vs. Pixels: Why 80s special effects still hold a special place in our hearts over modern CGI.The Remake Curse: Can a reboot ever capture the lightning in a bottle of the original?Horror Lore: The real-life medical mystery behind Freddy Krueger's origin.Unexpected Terror: Non-horror movies that left us scarred for life.Follow our guests:InstagramInstagramtallboyradio.com

Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show somehow starts with Point Fest prep and immediately spirals into backyard snake warfare, accidental public humiliation, mysterious old-person injuries, and one of the most aggressively cursed philosophical questions we've ever discussed on this daily comedy show.Lern nearly sacrificed herself to save her indoor cat from a giant backyard snake while fully committed to the “reading Vogue magazines outside with no clothes on” lifestyle. The result? Her chest now looks like Freddy Krueger signed it after a rough night in Ellisville. Meanwhile, Rizz debates whether friendship includes letting people sleep at your house during Point Fest weekend, and honestly… the answer may legally classify him as emotionally unavailable.We also uncover what may be the dumbest Internet trend in human history: “ball maxing.” Yes, apparently some dudes are injecting saline into their anatomy to achieve “grapefruit aesthetics.” Because therapy was simply too obvious. The gang dives deep into body dysmorphia, masculinity, medical horror stories, and why nobody — literally nobody — is spending as much time thinking about your balls as you are.Rafe contributes nightmare fuel with stories about phantom testicular pain, forgotten Q-tips in public, and somehow manages to make all of us afraid of our own nervous systems. King Scott attempts solutions involving decorative ball coverings, which somehow only makes the conversation worse. Honestly, this episode should probably be studied by scientists trying to understand societal collapse.Then things somehow get philosophical.The crew tackles “The Red Button vs Blue Button Dilemma,” where humanity must secretly choose between saving everyone or guaranteeing their own survival. Turns out trust issues may be the defining feature of modern civilization. Some of us chose hope. Some chose survival. Some chose chaos. And one of us may absolutely be the reason civilization collapses.The gang gears up for Point Fest with ticket giveaways, meet-and-greet plans, and what may become the worst idea in festival history: Rafe conducting porta potty interviews by sliding microphones under stall doors like a sewer goblin with broadcasting credentials. If you're attending Point Fest, congratulations — your bathroom anxiety just became part of the entertainment package.Then the crew dives headfirst into A&E's newest chaotic masterpiece: SquattersThe show also breaks down St. Louis' giant July 4th celebration featuring Ludacris, Miranda Lambert, Zedd, Stephen Marley, and the one true king of soundtrack glory: Kenny freakin' Loggins.Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show turns into a full-blown trivia battlefield as the legendary Rizz Quiz returns, and honestly… humanity may not be advancing as quickly as we hoped.Contestants call in armed with confidence, questionable public-school memories, and absolutely zero ability to think under pressure. One wrong answer and you're OUT. No skips. No lifelines. No mercy. Just 45 seconds of panic while the entire St. Louis area silently judges your understanding of planets, marzipan, and Batman lore.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Ballmaxxing is "electrifying, addictive, euphoric and transcendental" according to those pursuing bigger ballsThis Mystery Driver Used a Brilliant (and Slightly Unhinged) Move to Clear Trucks From the Passing Lane, and the Internet Is Calling It a Public ServiceYour Peace Sign Selfie Might Be Giving Scammers Your FingerprintsSquatter Who Refused to Leave Home Gets into Screaming Match After She's Caught: ‘Get Out of My Face!'Florida Mom's 17-Year-Old Daughter Uses ‘Car Ranch' on Her Food.

Simon and Chris flip their lids with a capful of questions about supernatural, magical, and unlucky hats. Why are witch and wizard hats pointed? What is the fashionable color for fairy caps? What headwear does the Leprechaun favor? Chris suggests an ancient origin for magical pointed hats and goes off on a medieval tangent. Simon tops that by pointing out the importance of hats in signaling status, even in the fairy world. Chris, naturally, finds omens of death associated with hats and tells of some unlucky military headwear. Expect to learn the identity of the hat man; how to be the strongest person in your parish; and why you should always buy your wife an Easter bonnet (or die trying).
IX En este episodio de LLDLL, nos adentramos en uno de los territorios más inquietantes y desconocidos de la mente humana: los sueños. La Frontera con lo Imposible. Este programa reúne experiencias reales que desafían la lógica, relatos que se mueven entre la psicología, el misterio y lo paranormal, y una pregunta constante que nos acompaña durante todo el viaje: ¿son los sueños simples construcciones del cerebro o pueden ser una puerta hacia algo más? A lo largo del episodio, escuchamos testimonios impactantes enviados por oyentes que han vivido experiencias oníricas difíciles de explicar. Historias como la de Beltrán, quien desde niño sufrió pesadillas recurrentes hasta que un día decidió enfrentarse a ellas dentro del propio sueño, descubriendo así el fenómeno del sueño lúcido y el control consciente del mundo onírico. O el caso de Antonio, que vuelve a compartir una vivencia profundamente personal donde el sueño se convierte en un espacio de conexión con lo inexplicable. También conocemos el relato de María, quien asegura haber recibido visitas de familiares fallecidos en sueños, aportando datos concretos, mensajes y detalles imposibles de atribuir al azar. El programa se enriquece además con colaboraciones y referencias dentro del mundo del misterio, como el podcast La Gata Cristy de Lola Velasco. Pero este viaje no se limita a experiencias personales. También exploramos algunos de los sueños más influyentes de la historia, aquellos que cambiaron la ciencia, la literatura y la música. Desde Dmitri Mendeléyev, quien soñó la estructura de la tabla periódica, hasta Elias Howe, cuya pesadilla le dio la clave para inventar la máquina de coser. Pasamos por James Watson y Francis Crick, vinculados a la visualización de la doble hélice del ADN, y por August Kekulé, quien descubrió la estructura del benceno tras soñar con una serpiente que se mordía la cola. La literatura también nace del mundo onírico con Robert Louis Stevenson, que concibió El extraño caso del doctor Jekyll y Mr Hyde tras una pesadilla, y Mary Shelley, quien imaginó Frankenstein en un sueño que la aterrorizó profundamente. En la música, encontramos el caso de Giuseppe Tartini y su Trino del Diablo, inspirado por un sueño en el que el propio demonio tocaba el violín, y el de Paul McCartney, quien soñó la melodía de Yesterday en 1963 y más tarde la frase que daría origen a Let It Be, vinculada a la aparición de su madre fallecida, Mary. Sin embargo, uno de los bloques más perturbadores del episodio nos traslada a un caso real que dejó desconcertada a la ciencia en los años 80: el fenómeno vivido por la etnia Hmong. Tras huir de Laos durante la Guerra de Vietnam, especialmente tras la retirada de Estados Unidos en 1975, muchos refugiados comenzaron a morir de forma inexplicable mientras dormían en países como Estados Unidos, en lugares como Minnesota, Wisconsin o California. Este fenómeno, conocido médicamente como SUNDS (Síndrome de Muerte Súbita Nocturna Inexplicable), fue interpretado por los Hmong como el ataque de una entidad llamada Dab Tsog, un espíritu que se posa sobre el pecho durante el sueño, provocando parálisis, terror extremo y, en algunos casos, la muerte. Estos sucesos no solo marcaron a la comunidad, sino que también inspiraron a Wes Craven tras leer casos reales en el Los Angeles Times, dando origen a uno de los iconos del terror moderno: Freddy Krueger y la saga Pesadilla en Elm Street. Un ejemplo más de cómo el miedo que habita en los sueños puede trascender hasta la cultura popular. A lo largo de este episodio, se plantea un equilibrio constante entre la explicación científica, que interpreta los sueños como procesos neurológicos relacionados con la memoria, el trauma o el deseo y la experiencia subjetiva de quienes aseguran haber vivido algo mucho más profundo. ¿Puede una creencia provocar una reacción física capaz de detener el corazón? ¿Son los sueños una vía de comunicación con lo que ya no está? ¿O simplemente una forma en la que el cerebro procesa la realidad? Sueños de los Oyentes es un programa sobre sueños lúcidos, sueños premonitorios, parálisis del sueño, experiencias paranormales, mensajes del más allá y relatos reales que exploran los límites entre la mente y lo desconocido. Un episodio pensado para quienes buscan historias de misterio, casos reales, fenómenos inexplicables y ese punto en el que la ciencia ya no tiene todas las respuestas.

This week on Friday Night Frightfest, we are hitting the "lucky number seven" of two of the greatest slasher sagas in history! We are comparing two of the most daring entries in their respective franchises: the telekinetic showdown Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988) and the groundbreaking meta-masterpiece Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994). It's a clash between the ultimate supernatural slasher and the movie that dared to break the fourth wall before "meta" was a household word. Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988) Directed by John Carl Buechler, The New Blood is often cited by fans as the "Jason vs. Carrie" installment. This is the monumental debut of Kane Hodder as Jason Voorhees, bringing a newfound physical intensity and rage to the role that defined the character for the next decade. The story follows Tina Shepard, a girl with telekinetic powers who accidentally resurrects Jason from the bottom of Crystal Lake while trying to bring back her deceased father. With a massive psychic showdown and some of the franchise's most brutal practical kills—including the iconic sleeping bag moment—this entry turned Jason into a force of nature that literally required a supernatural match-up to stop. Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) Directed by Wes Craven himself, New Nightmare took the franchise to an entirely new dimension. Abandoning the continuity of the previous films, this entry takes place in the "real world," where actress Heather Langenkamp (playing herself) is stalked by a darker, more terrifying entity that has taken the form of Freddy Krueger. As Freddy begins to bleed into reality, terrorizing the cast and crew of the Nightmare films, the movie deconstructs the entire slasher genre. It's a brilliant, psychological horror film that explores the burden of fame, the danger of archetypes, and what happens when the monster you created decides to come for its creator. Join us as we analyze how these seventh installments reinvented their monsters. We'll discuss the visceral, heavy-metal spectacle of Kane Hodder's first outing as Jason versus the high-concept, cerebral terror of Wes Craven's meta-commentary. Spoilers start around 7:21.
What was supposed to be the perfect birthday surprise turns into a chaotic horror-comedy nightmare…
Wes Craven didn't invent the idea of dying in your sleep during a nightmare — he read about it in the newspaper. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, dozens of young Hmong refugees in America went to sleep and never woke up, and nobody could explain why. The CDC investigated. Doctors were baffled. And the victims themselves had seen it coming — they were afraid to sleep. The real nightmare came first. Freddy Krueger came second.FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Children dying in their sleep while having terrible nightmares. It's not just a movie plot from a Wes Craven film – it really happened, and inspired the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise. (The Terrifying True Syndrome That Inspired A Nightmare on Elm Street) *** We're used to seeing someone on television or in movies die from a gunshot or stabbing, knowing they were just pretending – that the gun was using blanks, or the knife was using a retractable blade. But what we don't often hear are the times that those prop weapons end up killing someone for real. (Death By Movie Prop) *** How can a little girl disappear in a big crowd of people with no one seeing anything? Was it a case of stranger danger or did someone she know betray her trust? We'll look at the case of Beverly Rose Potts who went missing in 1951, never to be seen again. (Peril in the Park for Beverly Potts) *** Part medicine, part honey, part cannibalism… who or what was the mellified man? (The Mellified Man) *** They say that tragedy can change a person forever… and that couldn't be more true for one man who went from being considered lucky, to becoming deranged after a horrible accident, (The Hidden Wounds of Mr. Schultz) *** Famous last words. Humphrey Bogart said, “I should have never switched from Scotch to martinis.” Winston Churchill's last words were simply, “I'm bored with it all.” But sometimes what a person says on their deathbed can be shocking or outlandish – even if they aren't a celebrity. We'll look at a few unexpected deathbed moments.

The title of this classic sci-fi thriller might be a bit misleading. It's not about kidnappers or grave robbers. Get this: strange plants from space land on Earth and begin copy-pasting humans! That means there are two YOUs! Only the original you doesn't get to survive! The duplicate you isn't really "you", it's an alien intelligence with a secret agenda to take over our society. And they get you when you sleep! This is years before Freddy Krueger got everyone downing coffee like their lives depended on it. Sounds terrifying, don't it? Maybe I can lighten things up a little and share my insights on this superb 1978 remake starring Donald Sutherland and the OG Spock, Leonard Nimoy! Things are about to get highly illogical, but stay awake at all costs!
From Nightmare to Fan Fame: Heather Langenkamp's Hollywood Journey In this captivating episode of Reza Rifts, Keith sits down with one of horror cinema's most beloved and enduring icons Heather Langenkamp, the actress who gave the world Nancy Thompson in A Nightmare on Elm Street. Far more than a trip down horror memory lane, this conversation is a genuine, wide-ranging exploration of what it means to build a life in Hollywood from the grueling audition grind to the unexpected emotional weight of fame. Heather opens up about being cast by Wes Craven while still a student at Stanford University, what it was like to work alongside legends like Robert Englund, and how the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise became something far bigger and more meaningful than anyone could have predicted in 1984. The conversation digs deep into the evolution of horror fandom how audiences have transformed from passive moviegoers into passionate, lifelong communities and why Freddy Krueger resonates so deeply as a metaphor for the personal demons we all carry. Heather also reflects on her I Am Nancy documentary, navigating career challenges as a woman in Hollywood, the surprising world of practical special effects through her company AFX Studio, and what she wishes she could tell her younger self. Warm, funny, and full of genuine wisdom, this is the kind of conversation that reminds you why you fell in love with movies in the first place. Guest Bio Heather Langenkamp (born July 17, 1964, Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American actress, filmmaker, businesswoman, and radio personality whose career has spanned more than four decades. A Stanford University student when she first auditioned for Wes Craven, Heather beat out over 200 actresses to land the role of Nancy Thompson in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) a performance that would make her one of the most recognizable faces in horror history. Notable Works: A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) — Nancy Thompson A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987) — Nancy Thompson Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) — Herself Just the Ten of Us (1988–1990) — TV Sitcom American Horror Story: Freak Show (2014) The Midnight Club (2022) — Mike Flanagan's Netflix series I Am Nancy (2011) — Executive Producer & Star The Life of Chuck (2025) Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010) Co-Founder, AFX Studio (practical special effects) Follow Heather:

A mere week into the New Year and we already have a new release that'll likely wind up being one of the best horror movies of 2026.Johnny Sequoyah leads Johannes Roberts' Primate as Lucy. While visiting her father (Troy Kotsur) and sister (Gia Hunter) back home in Hawaii, another family member of Lucy's takes a turn — their chimp, Ben. Ben is bitten by a rabid mongoose. While Lucy and her friends enjoy the family pool and dream-like views, Ben loses himself to the sickness and becomes, as Roberts put it, “the Freddy Krueger of chimps,” and brutally starts picking them off one by one.With Primate playing in theaters nationwide, Sequoyah swung by the Collider Ladies Night studio to dig into her journey, including highs like working with a legend like Alfonso Cuarón, and also the lows of being recast in a show. On top of that, Sequoyah offered up a behind-the-scenes look at the staggeringly impressive movie magic required to create her Primate scene partner, Ben the killer chimp. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Nick is joined again by film critics Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy for a packed round of new movie reviews. They break down the latest take on Wuthering Heights starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, the chaotic sci-fi satire Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die with Sam Rockwell, and the thriller Crime 101 featuring Chris Hemsworth and Halle Berry. They also weigh in on the animated sports comedy Goat, with plenty of agreement, disagreement, and side tangents along the way. Esmeralda Leon jumps in later for a spirited conversation about Friday the 13th superstitions, which quickly turns into a deep dive on Jason Voorhees and his most memorable kills. There's a firm stance taken on the fact that he absolutely did not take Manhattan, along with a playful breakdown of how Jason and Freddy Krueger operate very differently and why those differences fuel their long-running feud. It's movie talk with a side of horror nerdery, exactly as it should be. [Ep 429]
She played a DNA expert on TV, but real forensics took 12 years to catch her stalker. Eva LaRue and daughter Kaya McKenna Callahan share what they endured.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1283What We Discuss with Eva LaRue & Kaya McKenna Callahan:For 12 years, Eva LaRue and her daughter Kaya were stalked by a man who sent graphic letters detailing plans to rape, torture, and murder them, signed "Freddy Krueger." The FBI profiler noted his clear, coherent writing made him especially dangerous.The stalker eventually called Kaya's high school pretending to be her father, leaving 19 voicemails overnight threatening to kill any teacher, student, or administrator who got in his way, proving his threats were escalating from paper to real-world action.Traditional law enforcement couldn't help because stalking laws require physical contact or break-in before police can act. The case was only solved when FBI agents used forensic genealogy — the same technology that caught the Golden State Killer (as discussed with investigator Paul Holes on episode 725) — matching DNA from the stalker's discarded Arby's cup.The psychological toll rewires how victims move through the world permanently. Kaya never posts locations in real time, always makes four left turns to verify she's not being followed, and grew up not knowing what life felt like "before" fear — because the stalking began when she was five.Speaking up and documenting everything matters. Eva's decision to report the letters to the FBI (through a CSI Miami advisor's connection) kept the case alive for 12 years until technology caught up. If you're being stalked, trust your instincts, preserve evidence, and know that persistence can eventually lead to justice.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
